After his entire career at AC Milan, Gianluigi made the move to PSG this past summer as the Ligue 1 giants brought in a boatload of new talent. However, things haven't exactly gone to plan for the Italian, registering just five league appearances. Donnarumma's agent, Mino Raiola, insists that he isn't unhappy about his client's move though, and insists the situation will be resolved. Via Fabrizio Romano:
“I didn't regret the Donnarumma deal with PSG. There’s no problem and the situation is under control.”
Keylor Navas has been PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino's first-choice in between the sticks this term, featuring in eight of their domestic fixtures. For Donnarumma, being the backup is definitely not a familiar situation after an impressive career and the San Siro and leading Italy to Euro 2020 glory in the summer.
It will be extremely tough for him to break through and find minutes at the moment however, considering PSG has conceded a mere 13 goals in as many games in the French top flight. In the Champions League, they've looked just as solid, conceding only five times.
Donnarumma's time will come, though. After all, he did sign a five-year deal with PSG after leaving Milan on a free transfer. Navas is 34-years-old and won't be around forever which means the Italy international will get this chance to shine at the Parc des Princes. But for the time being, he'll need to adapt.
